Alpinestars' popular waterproof textile jacket has one very clever trick under its sleeves...

Thin, flexible, lightweight. Well worth the price paid. Great upgrade. Usual great service from sportsbikeshop
Feel like normal trainers, but with the protection you need on the bike. Comfortable to wear all day, good grip, and smart enough to keep on when you’re off the bike. Covered a couple thousand miles in them, and they still look great.
This is a quality waterproof top. It’s clearly very visible which is important for bad weather conditions. It also looks well made and should last for a while. More importantly though it’s very lightweight. I chose this top after some research as I needed a top that I could fold up as small as possible. It was a toss up between the RST and the Alpinestars - the Alpinestars was more expensive but is better quality, breathable and is made from a lighter material. Its sized to fit ie choose your normal size, however I went one size up to ensure sufficient room for movement on the bike and to make it easier to put on when clothes are already a bit wet (as is normally the case).
Pleased with this purchase.
Item fits very well and perfect for my everyday riding.
So comfy fits perfect and it’s great in the head the ventilation is amazing
